While it would be a political and religious issue, family planning would 
be a good subject in the agenda.

Economics (think a stove costs X units of currency and lasts Y years, 
fuel costs W units of currency, the cost difference of fuel vs. the cost 
of the stove results in Z units of currency over that period) would be a 
good part.

Health would be another.  Use of a stove exclusively will prevent X 
deaths per 1000 children.  Would it be a good tradeoff to save a child 
instead of not having a stove?
